I Can See Through Everything

Early morning, the sun had just risen.

“Wow, so beautiful!”

Sitting on the ox cart, Xiao Yan exclaimed in awe.

At this moment, Lu Qing and others had already left the forest and were in the middle of a vast plain.

Surrounding them were vast fields with many farmhouses scattered among them.

Lu Qing’s ox cart was traveling along a wide official road in the middle of the fields.

It was the golden autumn season, the fields were a sea of gold, and no wonder Xiao Yan was amazed.

Compared to the scattered patches of paddy fields in Jiuli Village, these vast stretches of paddy fields were indeed shocking.

“Brother Lu Qing, just a bit further and we’ll reach the county town.”

Looking at the distant city, Lu Qing was a bit surprised.

He had thought that the county town wouldn’t be very big, but he was wrong.

Just the height of the city walls made it apparent that this county town was much larger than those so-called ancient towns he had visited in his previous life.

No wonder Master used to say that the city is a different world.

Just by looking at it, compared to Jiuli Village, the county town was indeed much more prosperous.

“Master, the county town is almost here. What should we do to enter the city?”

Yesterday afternoon, Lu Qing and his group had set off from Jiuli Village. The ox cart was slow, and the journey of over a hundred miles was not close.

After traveling for the better part of the day, it was already dark.

Night travel was difficult, and the county town closed its gates at night.

So, after nightfall, Lu Qing and his group had simply found an abandoned kiln to spend the night. They continued their journey at dawn.

“Just go in like this. As long as we get into the city, everything will be safe,” the old doctor said.

Lu Qing nodded.

His Master was a Precelestial martial artist. As long as they could enter the city, even if Wang Cangyi noticed, there was nothing he could do to them.

Unless he was willing to risk everything and start a battle within the city.

Thus, Lu Qing and his group hid their auras, their swords and knives concealed on the ox cart, trying to blend in as farmers heading to the city market.

Mrs. Wei and Wei Zian had their fair faces smeared with dust to look like ordinary farm folk.

The old doctor wore a bamboo hat to hide his face.

Following behind other early market-goers, their ox cart slowly moved forward.

As they got closer to the county town, everyone’s hearts started to race.

Especially Mrs. Wei, whose heart was pounding. She tightly held Xiao Yan, trying to calm her nerves and not reveal any flaws.

Lu Qing, looking at the thirty-meter-high, neatly built city wall ahead, understood why Mago didn’t suggest sneaking into the city at night.

The high and slippery city wall would be difficult to climb even for martial artists in the Tendons and Bones Realm without alerting anyone.

Moreover, they were accompanying Mrs. Wei and her child.

The closer they got to the city wall, the more the anxiety grew among the group.

However, just a hundred meters from the city gate, the old doctor suddenly stopped the ox cart.

Lu Qing's backpack also made a slight movement.

“Master?” Lu Qing was startled.

“Alas, we can’t hide it after all,” the old doctor sighed.

Mago and the others were shocked, just about to ask questions when a loud laugh came from the city gate.

A figure suddenly appeared on the city wall.

At the same time, a large number of people came out of the city, driving away the crowd and blocking the city gate.

Those intending to enter the city screamed and scattered. The slower ones were beaten black and blue, their belongings scattered.

Fortunately, those people had some restraint since it was the county town, and no one was killed.

Watching this scene, Lu Qing's eyes grew cold.

“Too much, where are the county magistrate’s people? Are they just going to let these people run rampant?”

Even Mago was furious.

As for Mrs. Wei and her child, they felt even more indignation.

These people were so arrogant. They couldn’t imagine how badly the household had been bullied these past days.

Soon, the crowd wanting to enter the city was dispersed, leaving only Lu Qing’s ox cart standing alone.

“Which Precelestial fellow is so kind to bring Wei Xinghe's wife and child personally? Wang Cangyi is truly grateful.”

With these words, the whole city was shocked.

Originally, the Tian Cang Sect's blockade of the city gate was enough to attract the attention of all the city's forces, wondering what the intruding dragon wanted to do.

Now, hearing Wang Cangyi’s words, it seemed the Wei family's mistress and Young Master Wei had returned?

Moreover, it involved another Precelestial expert?

Instantly, all the forces in the city were in turmoil, sending their experts to the city gate.

“Another Precelestial?”

In the County Magistrate’s Office.

The County Magistrate, who was playing chess, was stunned upon hearing Wang Cangyi’s voice.

When did his remote little town become so popular, with Precelestial experts appearing one after another?

“Let’s go and take a look.”

The young man in plain clothes across from him stood up calmly.

“Zhiyue, do you know something?”

The County Magistrate quickly asked his friend, recalling that he had seemed to disappear for a while yesterday.

However, the young man in plain clothes ignored his question and walked out.

“Hey, Zhiyue, wait for me!”

The County Magistrate hurried after him.

In the Wei residence, a secluded courtyard.

“Ningyan and An'er are back?”

Wei Xinghe was first overjoyed upon hearing the voice that echoed through the city, then his face changed dramatically.

“Another Precelestial, who is it? Did Ningyan and An'er fall into his hands?”

“What should we do, Master? The ancestor hasn’t come out yet! Should we inform him?”

Wei’s steward asked anxiously.

“No need, I’ve already heard,” Wei Shanhai appeared in the courtyard.

“Ancestor!” Wei Xinghe and the steward were delighted, “How is your injury?”

“No improvement,” Wei Shanhai shook his head, giving a disappointing answer, “I’ve been meditating for several days with no progress.”

But Wei Xinghe quickly cheered up: “Ancestor, Wang Cangyi said Ningyan and An'er are back, in the hands of another Precelestial, right?”

“Their blood and qi are too weak, too far away for me to be sure, but there is indeed another unfamiliar Precelestial aura outside the city.”

Wei Shanhai looked serious.

He couldn’t imagine how a small Cang County could attract a third Precelestial.

Is the newcomer friend or foe, passing by or a powerful ally of Wang Cangyi?

For a moment, even Wei Shanhai, with his calm demeanor, felt uneasy.

But he knew that no matter what, he must go out and figure this out.

Inside the city, all the forces were in turmoil because of Wang Cangyi’s words.

Outside the city, Lu Qing looked up at the figure on the city wall.

At this moment, the figure on the city wall was radiating a faint golden light in his vision.

[Wang Cangyi: Inner Elder of Tian Cang Sect in the northern border, hypocritical and suspicious, skilled in disguise, very protective.]

[Cultivation: Precelestial Initial Peak, gold attribute true qi.]

[Possesses multiple Precelestial secret techniques, especially skilled in swordsmanship.]

[Traveled with Wei Shanhai in his youth, were close friends, but later fell out over uneven distribution of treasure.]

Seeing the information displayed in his vision, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Wang Cangyi’s cultivation was only at the initial peak of the Precelestial, not much stronger than Master.

They were not at a complete disadvantage.

However, he was surprised to learn that Wang Cangyi and the Wei family’s ancestor were once friends.

This explained why the Tian Cang Sect, from the far northern border, knew about the Wei family in this remote town and came all this way to seize their treasure.

“Master, how did he find us?” Lu Qing asked.

“It’s just our bad luck. This Precelestial seemed to have been waiting near the city gate, and as soon as we got close, he sensed my Precelestial aura.”

The old doctor said with a bitter face.

“Maybe it’s not our bad luck, but that he never left the vicinity, always watching the Wei family’s ancestor,” Lu Qing sneered.

From the information he sensed, this Wang Cangyi was a typical hypocrite.

Such people were often relentless in achieving their goals.

Lu Qing guessed that since the failed attack on the Wei family, Wang Cangyi had probably been guarding the city, sensing anyone from the Wei family coming or going.

“Master, can you defeat Wang Cangyi?” Lu Qing asked quietly.

“Afraid not,” the old doctor shook his head, “This Precelestial has strong aura, and I’m not good at fighting. In a real fight, I wouldn’t be his match.”

“Not even with the techniques left by Senior Li?”

“Difficult. Your Master is dull-witted. I’ve only practiced two of Senior Li’s techniques and only grasped three or four-tenths of their mysteries, nowhere near these true Precelestial experts.”

“So, we’ll have to delay until the Wei family’s ancestor comes out.”

Lu Qing felt troubled.

But he believed

that Wang Cangyi wouldn’t act rashly.

After all, he didn’t know that Master wasn’t good at fighting.

With another Precelestial from the Wei family watching, he wouldn’t easily provoke another conflict with a Precelestial.

Mago and the others, hearing the master-disciple conversation, were stunned.

“Old, old doctor, you’re a Precelestial expert?”

Mago stammered.

“Just lucky to break through to Precelestial, not an expert.” The old doctor shook his head.

Mago’s mouth gaped.

He never thought the kind, amiable old doctor could be a Precelestial expert.

Even though he knew the old doctor was an Internal Organs Realm martial artist, he never imagined he’d silently become Precelestial.

Mrs. Wei and her child couldn’t believe that the old man who had been driving the cart was a legendary Precelestial expert.

While Mago and the others were shocked, Wang Cangyi was displeased.

He didn’t expect that his goodwill would be ignored, as if they didn’t take him seriously.

However, thinking of Wei Shanhai in the city, he suppressed his anger.

“Sir, what do you think of my proposal? If you hand over the Wei mother and child, my Tian Cang Sect will reward you greatly.”

This was Wang Cangyi’s first public mention of his sect.

Clearly, he was cautious about the mysterious Precelestial, hoping to intimidate him with the sect’s name.

Unfortunately, the old doctor didn’t know what the Tian Cang Sect was.

He shook his head, “Forgive me, but I can’t comply. You have killing intent. These two children wouldn’t end well in your hands.”

“So, you are determined to help the Wei family?”

Wang Cangyi’s eyes turned cold, his aura rising.

He confirmed that the old doctor and his group were indeed helping the Wei family.

Remembering his three dead disciples, his eyes grew colder.

His tone was no longer polite: “Old man, did you kill my disciples?”

Feeling Wang Cangyi’s rising aura, Lu Qing’s heart shook. He stepped forward and shouted:

“Sir, do you intend to defy the Sacred Mountain’s ban and attack us?”

“Impudent!”

Seeing a mere Tendons and Bones Realm martial artist dare to shout at him, Wang Cangyi’s eyes flashed with fierceness, and his powerful aura pressed down on Lu Qing.

Including everyone on the ox cart.

The might of a Precelestial was extraordinary. Even being on the edge of his aura made Mrs. Wei and others feel uncomfortable, almost fainting.

Fortunately, the old doctor waved his hand, a gentle aura covering them, blocking Wang Cangyi’s pressure.

Even so, Mrs. Wei and the others coughed loudly.

Even the Tendons and Bones Realm Mago was flushed and terrified.

It was his first time feeling the might of a Precelestial, and it was terrifying.

“Auntie, are you okay?”

Xiao Yan, worried, patted her aunt’s back to help her breathe.

“Auntie is fine…” Mrs. Wei shook her head, but soon felt something wrong, “Xiao Yan, aren’t you uncomfortable?”

Seeing Xiao Yan looking concerned and unaffected, Mrs. Wei was stunned.

“No, but that uncle over there is scary. Xiao Yan doesn’t like him.”

Xiao Yan shook her head, frowning with dislike.

Mrs. Wei was dumbfounded.

“Hmm?”

Wang Cangyi was shocked to see his aura so easily neutralized by the old doctor.

What surprised him more was that Lu Qing, who bore the brunt of his aura, stood there calmly, unaffected.

“How is this possible!”

All the martial artists who saw this were shocked.
